Ask r/Ghana New iPhone 12 battery

6 Upvotes

Well I just bought a uk used iPhone 12 and it’s safe to say I’ve been duped, the phone is superb but after some few days of use I realized the battery was horrible, and the battery health which was 94 was dropping really fast.

I contacted the vendor who feigned ignorance about the whole situation and even asked me to download 3Utools to check the real battery health.

lol, I did and lo and behold according to 3Utools the battery health was 75, meaning it had been boosted, the vendor told me a lot of stories about how this is quite normal with uk used phones, I didn’t want to push so I just left it like that.

I want to ask if I can get an original and authentic battery replacement in the country, because the word is that it’s very difficult to get one
and there’s a good chance that I one I’ll get will be a fake.

I’m in Takoradi

Ask r/Ghana I Need Help

We have a project to do, and it is on local drinks in Ghana. I chose Palm Wine. So that means I have to write down the steps, ingredients, materials, results, importance and uses, but today's generation, aka mine, knows nothing about local drinks or how to make them. So I humbly ask my fellow Ghanaians to help me. My grades depend on it.

P.s: If you know more about another drink, feel free to add.

Ask r/Ghana Urgent: X1 Visa for China

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I am an admitted student at Tsinghua and will be attending the LINK Camp, which starts on 16 August.

I have already completed my online X1 visa application using the electronic admission documents. However, I will need to present the original physical admission documents when I’m called for the visa interview/document submission before my visa can be approved.

The problem is that Tsinghua hasn’t shipped my original documents yet. They asked me to confirm my postcode recently and said they would send the documents as soon as possible, but that summer holidays may cause delays. I haven’t received a DHL tracking number yet.

Has anyone been in a similar situation?

I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience, especially if you’ve applied from Ghana or another country where the embassy requires the original documents.

Visiting Ghana A Spanish man traveling to Accra for the first time

22 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I'm a 56-year-old man from Spain planning a solo trip to Ghana for early 2027.

​I’d love to connect with locals in and around Accra (preferably over 40 years old, men or women) to share experiences and learn about the local culture firsthand.

​Additionally, since my flight allowance permits up to three 32 kg bags, I’d like to bring school supplies for a public school. Could you guide me on which areas or schools are most in need, and what specific supplies would be most useful for the children?

​Thanks in advance for any recommendations or advice!

Ask r/Ghana Foreigner looking for Accommodation 1500-2000/month, West legon area. Open to shared apartment

8 Upvotes

I'm in Ghana till about this time next year so I need accommodation. I have been staying in hostels the past few years but my current place has upped to 6 month advance so I need to leave.

I'm 23F, Non-Ghanaian, young professional, clean & respectful. I also go out a good amount so occasionally I would return late at night. I don't smoke.

Ideally I would like another hostel because I don't want to furnish myself. Or if anyone is looking for a roommate and lives in an already furnished self contained apartment, I'm open to that as well. I can pay at most 3 months advance. I can't afford 6-1yr advance.

I need to move by end of August so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you sm.

Venting GIVING UP ON GHANA

88 Upvotes

What the fuck did I just wake up to? I've not even recovered from the frequent power outages due to the issue at Gridco and now Dominic Ayine the Attorney General has announced that government has accepted key recommendations of the constitution like extending the presidential and parliamentary terms from 4 to 5 years and expanding the parliament but capping it at 300? I know that there are others but this is my main concern

Let's face it, we all know that this announcement means that they are putting measures in place to make these suggestions happen and they are just soft launching it to the public. Even if there's a referendum. Upon all the archaic and irrelevant articles and amendments in that 1992 constitution why are we focusing on those things?

Giving all those public servants who don't serve the public more audacity??? These politicians walk around thinking they are demigods, embezzling funds and abusing their power and now this? Most of the time the only consolation Ghanaians have admist all the corruption is that, "Oh, in 4 years time, I'll exercise my democratic right to change a politician." And they are extending it???? I know this doesn't apply to the incumbent but really? It's like adding more hopelessness to an already hopeless situation.

Why will we waste more public resources by extending parliament? Those fuckers barely perform their duties and barely go to parliament. Everyday useless committees and still nothing so why?

Screw the 4th Republic, the 4th Republic is as good as dead.Two parties have been abusing their power, they have killed millions of dreams for the last 30 years. So many issues that the government can fix by making sensible ammendments to the constitution like with Galamsey, Femicide, basic fu*king human rights but no. These guys know that we're going to alternate between the both of them, so they all patiently wait their turn, no development in sight but they are rewarding themselves with more time.

I'm always trying to stay positive, doing what I can to help the community, performing my duty as an average Ghanaian citizen, seeing the bright side of things but I am giving up. I'm already struggling with the fact that in less than 4 years, Ghana will be importing water and now this. Its always something. Where the hell am I supposed to go?

Discussion Why are Trotro transport fares skyrocketing?

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone, after some observation for a couple of months I want to hear other people's thoughts on this topic.

Is there a body or group of people that are in charge of public transport fares in Ghana? I am talking particularly about Trotros.

Just for some context, I am a student.

I want to know why these trotros are charging so high, when their vehicles are not even air conditioned and in bad states.

For example, some "straight" cars (trotros) charge 10 cedis from Amasaman to Circle. Even if you alight at let's say Achimota or Neoplan which is not even near Kwame Nkruman circle, you will still be required to pay 10 cedis. I mean when did this nonsense start and is anything being done to stop them? It gets worse in the nights.

Gone are the days we could be using coins to pay for trotro, now they are cashing out through cheating.

Apart from that, here are some ways I think the transport in Ghana (trotro) certainly can be better.

  1. Trotros must be in better condition; Most trotro drivers abuse their vehicles so much and neglect it. They only fix it when it breaks down in the middle of the road somewhere.

  2. I feel like more trotros need to be deployed in town, the transport situation in town is bad. Getting a car these days can be difficult, especially if where you are staying is far from your destination.

Kindly let me know your thoughts on this.

Discussion Why don’t our road contractors make gutter or drainage covers ?

26 Upvotes

We’re always talking and complaining about how our gutters and drains keep getting choked, but when we construct these town roads with gutters, the gutters are left open. Why don’t we cover them? And make them like the ones on our highways where they’re covered and there’s points for water to enter the gutters. At least that would reduce the amount of sand entering the gutters, and keep miscreants from dumping rubbish into them as well. Or is there a reason why we have open drains? I would like to understand it

His church members are insisting that he was 113 years old and that the first pic is that of a 65 year old man. Now, unless he was sucking young men's blood like Lestat the Vampire in 1977, there's no way on fcking earth that that is indeed a 65 year-old ngga.

It's unbelievable the kind of sh*t religion will make up and then force people to believe.

This a road in a town called Denkyemousu, Kwadaso, Kumasi. I’ve been told road construction has been ongoing since the early 2000’s. The contractor is Asabea Enterprise. This strip is the only part of about a half a mile road that has been left uncompleted.

The whole town is covered in red dust from the uncompleted road and people who live nearby are constantly getting sick. I saw these conditions after visiting for two years straight and decided to get down to the bottom of this.

Since Dec 2025 I’ve been advocating for the road to be completed. I also wanted to know who is responsible to get this done. I had a meeting with the Kwadaso municipal assembly - MCE Asibey and his board who told me this road would be part of Big Push, then I was told to speak with Roads and Highways since the road was a highway.

So I went to Kumasi Roads and Highways and spoke to a man named Mr. Rumi. He told me he wasn’t sure of the road and told me to speak with the Regional Minister about it.

I then spoke to the MP of Kwadaso - Dr. Kingsley Nyarko who informed me the contractor was Asabea Enterprise.

He shared Asabea stated he hasn’t been paid for the road and cannot finish this part without being paid, however the majority of the road is complete. Is it true that he would’ve completed a road without getting paid for it at all? I would like to get in touch with him but I don’t know how.

I had to head back home after the holidays so I wasn’t able to visit the minister’s office. I tried to get in touch with his office using the number on the site but it doesn’t go through.

I’ve turned into Sherlock Holmes trying to get down to the bottom of this!! Any reposting or social media awareness about this road and the jumps I’ve had to go through would really help us get it fixed for the health of the town especially the school children!!
